The other Wal-Marts will probably get them tonight. I also stopped at Elk River and Maple Grove WMs but they didn't have any yet or were sold out.
Targets in Brooklyn Park and Riverdale didn't have anything new or refilled. I imagine some Targets may have w7 tomorrow since they didn't have them today. I stopped at Blaine TRU this moring and picked up all three 3-packs. This was the first time I've seen all three. I also bought a fixed v2 Snake Eyes there but I had to ask them for service to get it. They didn't have much on the pegs so I asked a clerk if they had any more single packs in back and he said everythings on the floor. Then I asked him to look them up on the computer to see and he had to get a manager involved for permission. The manager basically refused to look in back at first even though the computer said they had 2 cases in back. After I showed her the empty spots where a case would fit she reluctantly went to back to get them. They weren't busy and I was one of the only ones shopping there but they had better things to do then customer service. I almost regret giving them my money today after that. I spend a lot of money at that store but they aren't very friendly; at least the people working today. |

That sucks when you get crappy customer service. You want to give them your money and they give you a nasty look. Jerks, especially since they needed to fill the pegs anyway. At least you got the Snake Eyes.
I am guessing the stores I checked will have wave 7 in tonight/tomorrow morning. I'll probably check some of the nearby 24 hour stores overnight. I want some of the new Indiana Jones stuff and a Joker from the Dark Knight also. Hopefully they put those out. Last edited by CelticViking; 04-30-2008 at 10:42 PM.. |

No Wave 7 at Eagan Walmart overnight. Bloomington Walmart = nothing this morning.
Called Maple Grove Walmart; no singles except for hooded CC and Cobra Trooper. Wave 7 will probably trickle out gradually to Walmarts over the next couple of weeks, followed shortly by Targets. That's usually been my experience, anyway... |

I went to that Eagan store last night and saw a GI Joe case on a pallet. I got excited and grabbed it, but then I saw that it was the comic packs. I left with blue balls. I also went to the Shakopee and Apple Valley stores and found nothing. Probably a good thing, though, because I ended up buying about $100 in Indiana Jones stuff at Target this morning.

West St Paul Target had the wave 1 Raiders figures, deluxes, Adventure Heroes, 12 inchers and vehicles out. Inver Grove Heights Wally World had some of the Raiders figures and some Crystal Skull figures. The army builders were gone. No sign of the woman, either. I forgot her name. They had all of the Dark Knight figures out also. I picked up a Joker. It's creepy looking, and it is even creepier considering Heath Ledger is no longer with us. No wave 7 Joes there or at West St Paul WM, BTW. The Apple Valley Wally World also had the Indy stuff sitting in the boxes in the aisle but had not yet put it on the pegs when I was there. They also had Hulk and some Dark Knight stuff, but no Joker or Scarecrow.

Over at Jedidefender.com someone found w7 at Apple Valley WM on Thursday. If anyone is into Star Wars or Minnesota sightings you may want to join their forums. Very active sightings board.

I think most WM stores received w7 but may have the product on the pallets with the street date movie toys. This may be why they aren't out if they haven't put out their Indy, Hulk and Batman toys. Or maybe not?
I stopped at the Riverdale store again last night after work and they had put out 1 more case of w7. All the cards were damaged from shipping and a few even had loose bubbles. |

Dang, Arctic Ackbar found the wave 7 at the Apple Valley store? I guess they didn't have all the pallets out when I was there. Oh well, I'll come across it again. I am registered at JD as John C, my real name. I just have not gone there in a while because I am pretty much done with Star Wars right now unless they put out more of the Vintage collection style figures. A Cloud Car and the Death Star would also bring me back.
